Single cell suspensions of tumor and tumor-adjacent tissue were stained
with surface antibodies for CD19, CD20, CD3, CD8, CD4, CD56 and CD11c (clones
HIB19, 2H7, HIT3a, RPA-T8, RPA-T4, HCD56, and 3.9, respectively, Biolegend) and
an intracellular stain for the transcription factor FoxP3 (clone PCH101,
Ebioscence) for Figure 1 and for CD19, CD20, CD21, CD69, CD27 and HLA-DR (clones HIB19, 2H7, HB5, FN50, O323, and L243,
respectively, Biolegend and Ebioscience) for Figs. 2 and 3. Positive and negative
controls for staining were PBLs from patients or control donors, lymphocytes
from control donor spleens, lymphocytes from control (disease-free) lungs,
lymphocytes from NSCLC pleural metastases, and PBL from untreated,
HIV+ patients. Flow cytometry was conducted using an LSR
II (BD Biosciences) and data were analyzed using FlowJo software (Tree Star,
Inc.). For Fig. 2B, total lymphocyte infiltration was calculated using the following equation: [Total cell
number from tissue X % lymphocyte gate X % lymphocyte
population, i.e. CD19+]/ [mass of tissue in
grams].

Clear cell RCC patient tissue specimens were prepared by mechanical disruption using a razor blade followed by treatment with 280 U/mL Collagenase Type 3 (Worthington Biochemical) and 4 ug/mL DNase I (Sigma) at 37°C for 1 hour with periodic vortexing. Digested tissues were passed through 70 um filters. Resulting cells were resuspended in 44% Percoll – 66% Percoll gradient (Sigma) and centrifuged for 30 minutes at 1,900 g with no brake. Mononuclear cells were collected and immediately stained for flow cytometry analysis following Fc blocking (company) and live/dead staining (company). The antibodies used for flow cytometry were: HLA-DR (L243, Biolegend #307618), CD14 (HCD14; Biolegend #325608), CD45 (2D1; eBioscience 11–9459-42), CD16 (3G8; Biolegend 302008), CD56 (HCD56; Biolegend 318318), and CD3 (7D6; Invitrogen MHCD0317). Tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) were identified as CD45+CD3Lin-HLA-DR+CD14+CD16+. Data are reported as the percent of all cells.

In order to assess HA- directed B cell binding and cross-reactivity, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC’s) from samples with different stem binding based on ELISA assay (n = 18) were further analyzed by flow cytometry. Three groups were selected for the analysis: negative for stem antibodies (n = 5), reactive to one stem only (n = 4), and samples with cross-reactive stem binding (n = 9). Cryopreserved PBMC’s were thawed in R-10 media containing 50 U/mL of Universal Nuclease (ThermoFisher). Cells were washed and resuspended in PBS for staining with UV-Blue viability dye (ThermoFisher) for 20 minutes at room temperature. After washing, surface staining was performed using antibodies against IgM (G20-127, BD Biosciences), IgG (G18-145, BD Biosciences), CD8 (RPA-T8, BioLegend), CD3 (OKT3, BioLegend), CD56 (HCD56, BioLegend), CD14 (M5E2, BioLegend), CD19 (J3-119, Beckman Coulter), CD27 (O323, BioLegend), CD38 (HIT2, BioLegend), and HA probes27 –29 (link). H1 NC 99 and H5 INDO 05 HAs were expressed and biotinylated followed by fluorochrome labeling as previously described29 (link). Stained cells were run on a BD LSRFortessa X-50 and data analysis was performed using FlowJo (TreeStar). The gating strategy is demonstrated in supplemental Fig. 2. Statistical significance at 95% confidence interval was done using two-tailed t-test.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
